FRIEND OF EDITOR ON JOB IN PLANE (continued from front page) fields knocked out of operation cannot be told for military rea sons, Colonel Anderson said that “the efficiency of the German operational units has been ap preciably lowered by our steady bombing, which is keeping them on the run.” ' “It has been proved by exper ience that enemy »fighter units can be forced to abandon air dromes,” said Colonel Anderson, “and that is what we are doing— not so much by bombing landing fields, which can be repaired, but by wrecking permanent installa tions such as barracks, hangars, machine shops and radio control facilities.” During the last week alone it was disclosed that three air fields were knocked off the Marauder target list. Colonel Anderson pointed to this .as evidence that the Marauder crews are rapidly improving their technique. Among the key-airdromes of AT FIRST «A life SIGN OF A cfe 666 TABLETS. SALVE.

C. which have been hammered hardest is the one at Abbeville, home of the famed “Abbeville Kids” of Hermann Goering’s yel low nose squadron which bomber crews have found especially tough. The more nazis that can be kicked around by the Marauders, Colonel Anderson explained, the easier it becomes for their big brothers, Flying Fortresses and RAF Lancasters, to penetrate deeper into the he|art of Ger many. | Meanwhile, he said, the B-26 crews are building up valuable combat experience for the time when the tactics will change into direct support of ground opera tions. Little of the real drama be hind the rise to fame of these fast, twin-engined “flying cigars” | is told in the cold, factual phra | ses of the day-to-day communi ques. but it is one of the specta cular features of the air war. The Marauders began their op | orations from Britain last May with a low-level attack on a power station in Holland by 12 plants. All returned, but badly shot up. The second and last low-level mission was against an . unidentified target May 17. And T here they had even worse luck, i The experiment having failed, j the outfit was shifted from the | bomber command to the support command and resumed opera tions at a medium altitude — p,1,000 to 14,000 feet —with a , J fighter escort. Since then they have flown approximately 4,000 sorties on 75 missions and have lest only 13 planes. Marauder claims against ene! my fighters are 18 destroyed, 12 j probably destroyed and 17 dam aged. RAF Spitfires while sheph erding them have knocked down something like 200. Presides air fields, the medium bombers have severely damaged railway yards and dock facilities. BUY BONDS TODAY!
